On-site toolbox talks

Most sites have policies of carrying out toolbox talks on a regular basis but during feedback from the workforce it was suggested practical onsite toolbox talks would be more beneficial.

We have implemented this and today we carried out an onsite refresher / talk on rescuing operatives from height in mewps.

We asked our steel erectors safety manager to carry out the toolbox talk / practical demonstration.

Feedback from those who attended was very good so we will be looking into starting this on a regular basis throughout the contract.

We will also invite safety managers from all sub-contractors to carry out similar demonstrations.
